Important Disclosures:
An interval fund, such as BDREX, is a continuously offered, closed-end investment company that periodically offers to repurchase its shares from shareholders. The number of shares that BDREX will offer to repurchase will be determined by its Board of Trustees on a quarterly basis. Redemptions within 90 days of purchase may be subject to a fee. There is no guarantee that an investor will be able to sell all the shares that the investor desires to sell in any repurchase offer.
The Fund’s shares will not be listed on an exchange and it is not anticipated that a secondary market will develop. The Fund is a new company and has no operating history. An investment is not suitable for investors that require liquidity. Investing in BDREX involves risks, including loss of principal and the other risks set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of the prospectus.
Because BDREX’s direct real estate investments will be relatively illiquid, the Fund may not be able to vary its portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions, which may result in losses to the Fund. The bankruptcy, insolvency or financial deterioration of any of the tenants of the Fund’s direct real estate investments could significantly delay the ability to collect unpaid rents or require the Fund to find new tenants. With respect to BDREX’s investments in private real estate investment funds, the Fund may not have the sole decision-making authority over such funds and may be unable to take actions to protect its interests in these investments. The Fund may be subject to additional risks if it fails to meet a capital call from a private real estate investment fund and the underlying fund may pursue investment strategies that compete with each other or do not align with those of the Fund. BDREX’s investments in the securities of publicly traded REITs will be subject to the risks affecting these REITs directly.
AN INVESTOR SHOULD CONSIDER THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, RISKS, CHARGES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND CAREFULLY BEFORE INVESTING. TO OBTAIN A PROSPECTUS CONTAINING THIS AND OTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR OR VISIT WWW.BDREX.COM. THE PROSPECTUS SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE INVESTING.
The Fund is distributed by ALPS Distributors, Inc. (ALPS). ALPS is not affiliated with BDREX, Broadstone Real Estate, LLC, Heitman Real Estate Securities LLC, or UMB Bank, NA.
